Yes, Nate is back, with help from his super cool and hott and sexxxy girlfriend Aubrey :). Yes, tis I who is doing the coding on this badass page from now on! But don't worry, I'm not going to get rid of the good stuff. Here's some fun stuff that was here before!
The Big Dan Patrick Tribute Page! Big Dan has been an influence in my life and I am proud to call him my friend, when I don't swear with him at stuff! NAH ha ha! :) It is on Fox 28 on Sundays at 8 pm. If some of you are wandering what the Lone Gunmen look like here is a picture. Pretty cool, huh? First of all I would like to point out that we look nothing like the Lone Gunmen. We are just a clod of 3 X-Philes that like the Lone Gunmen. So, we named ourselves after them. Now, about the picture the man with glasses and blond hair is Langly. The man with brown hair and a 'stache and a goetee is Byers. The balding guy with glasses is Frohike. I will tell you more about the Lone Gunmen by using"The Truth Is Out There,"" The Official Guide To The X-Files" By Brian Lowry. Printed by Harper Collins Publishers. A Harper Prism book. From page 79 to page 85. Created by writers Glen Morgan and James Wong, this trio of paranoid conspiracy theorists who pubilsh "The Lone Gunman" newsletter--Langly, Byers, and Frohike--first appeared in "E.B.E" (Extraterrestrial Biological Experiment) and have subsequently become recurring charachters, much to the shock of the performers involved. Despite their limited exposure, the group has become EXTREMELY popular helping Agent Fox Mulder in his pursuit of the truth while one of its members, Frohike, spends his time lusting after Mulder's partner, Agent Dana Scully. Stripped of their roles and chased into the sunlight on "The X-Files" set in Vancouver, they are: As it turns out, a snide joke and a fortuiously timed trip to the men's room reactivated Tom Braidwood's acting career, though he was and continues to be happily ensconsed on the other side of the camera. Tom Braidwood, a first assistant director for the "X-Files", happened tp be walking by while producers considered actors to play Frohike. At that moment, director William Graham--a long-time aquaintance--noticed him and as legend has it observed, "We needed somebody slimy...someone like Braidwood." He emerged from the bathroom to be greeted with a chorus of "Ah, Frohike," and a star was born. Braidwood concedes that he didn't have much choice in the matter but has enjoyed his return to acting. "I always missed it," he says, and in the last year he's been mulling over doing stagework if time permits during the summer. Born September 27, Braidwood acted in theater before finding steady imployment behind the scenes on shows like "Danger Bay" and "21 Jump Street"--the latter credit he shares with "The X-Files" co-executive producers Glen Morgan and James Wong, who created the charachter and thus inadvertantly launched his second career. "The Lone Gumman scenes, he says,"are usually done pretty quick and dirty. We say, 'Did we get all our words out, okay?' Alright, move along, ' He also points out that his partners "get all the hard work". They actually have to tell the story. I just get to say things like 'She's hot' and 'She's tasty'" as he lusts after Agent Scully. Tom Braidwood's favorite episode is "Dod Kalm." (The one where Mulder and Scully are trapped on a Battleship and are aging rapidly.) Costar Bruce Harwood (Byers) returned from a gathering of X-Philes not long ago with a button for his long-haired partner in crime, that simply says, "I'm Not Garth." Any resemblence to the fictitious "Wayne's World" charachter and Haglundis purely coincidental. Haglund has followed his own trail of laughs to into "The X-Files" lore. Well known on the Vancouver stand-up comedy and improv circuit, Haglund won the part of Lone Gunmen's most flamboyant members from over 30 aspirants who auditioned. Born July 29, Haglund remains a member of the improv Theatersports team--whose stage works include such spoofs as "Star Trick: The Next Improvisation" and "Free Willy Shakespeare." He's also appeared in various movies and TV shows in the area including: "The Commish", "Sliders", and "Street Justice". Since he usually spends Friday nights on stage, Haglund was almost entirely unfamiliar with the show, though his role has lured some of the show's die-hard fans to see him live. "They watch a bunch of shows, they get partied up and come to see me. They start screaming, and I've got to perform with my friends saying, 'Wow, who ARE those guys?' Haglund says, while adding that there are still people on the comedy club circuit who've never heard of the show when the emcee introduces him by saying something like "You've seen him on "The X-Files." "What?" Haglund says, affecting his best "dude" impersonation. "It's porno?" Dean Haglund's favorite episode is "Tooms." (a.k.a Squeeze 2) "I don't get funny lines," says Harwood of his role Byers, the most nattily attired of the Lone Gunmen. Not that he's complaining, since he clearly relishes his part in the series. A native of British Columbia, Harwood has appeared in such locally produced TV shows as: "21 Jump Street", "MacGyver", and "Wiseguy", as well as the recent TV movie remake of "Bye Bye Birdie." He even played a computer technician in the ill-fated sequel "The Fly II", but laughs when it's brought up." "It's pretty bad," he admits. "It's only funny if you know the people because they all get slaughtered in the end." Harwood, born April 29, sees the characher of Byers--known for his severesuits--as a professional type who moonlights as a conspiracy theorist. Like Haglund, he had zero familiarity with the show before being cast and had no idea the trio would ever appear again until being called back for a second episode. "When I came on set I started hearing strange stories about how popular we were," he says. Harwood actually attributes the wardrobe to part of the Gunmen's appeal, because they look so incongruous together, with Langly a long-haired rock 'n' roll type,Byers looking like a neatly trimmed professor, and Frohike a classic dirty old man. Writers Glen Morgan and James Wong actually loosely based the Gunmen on a similarly attired trio they saw at a gathering of UFO enthusiasts. "That's why they work," Harwood suggests. "That's how it visually defines it self." The Gunmen play a clearly defined role, he adds, by moving the plot along in an interesting way, sharing their own paranoid conspiracy theories with Mulder and thus providing necessary back story. Still, as a late convert to the show, Harwood notes wryly that once he started watching the show he couldn't figure it out at first, "Why does Mulder have all these people helping him and he's nowhere near the truth?" That said Harwood is eager for the trio to provide Mulder with all the help he can handle, for as long as he needs it, to keep himself working. "At least four or five times a year," he adds quickly. "We're counting on that." Bruce Harwood's favorite episode is "Humbug." (The one with the man with his twin brother growing out his side.)
